Brock Bowers’ Week 2 Status in Question After Knee Tweak for Raiders

He reports improvement without a commitment to play.

Overview

  • Bowers said he is feeling a little better and hopes to play after tweaking his knee against the Patriots, though he remains unsure about Monday.
  • Head coach Pete Carroll indicated optimism by saying Bowers and linebacker Elandon Roberts do not think they cannot play.
  • Reporting indicates Bowers appears to have avoided a serious injury, yet there is no guarantee he will suit up against the Chargers.
  • Las Vegas gains an extra evaluation day with the matchup scheduled for Monday night.
  • If Bowers is unavailable, Michael Mayer would take on more snaps, with Ian Thomas in reserve and potential practice-squad elevations of Albert Okwuegbunam or Carter Runyon.
